Accelerometer! Use this link to open on a mobile device. It should (it may ro may not, but why not try it?) It is supposed to be able to graph the velocity or acceleration of the device as you move it!! Here it is: http://www.physicsclassroom.com/Physics-Interactives/1-D-Kinematics/Accelerometer/Accelerometer-Interactive
